Phys.org / What 3I/ATLAS tells us about other solar systems
The earliest images of 3I/ATLAS, newly uncovered by Michigan State University, reveal how the interstellar object evolved as it traveled through our solar system—and how other distant solar systems might be different from ...
Phys.org / Uniting the light spectrum on a single microchip
Focused laser-like light that covers a wide range of frequencies is highly desirable for many scientific studies and for many applications, for instance, quality control of manufacturing semiconductor electronic chips. But ...
Phys.org / Stored for 130 years: Bottles reveal evidence of Danish butter production and hygiene practices of the past
Two forgotten bottles in a basement in Frederiksberg containing bacterial cultures from the 1890s have provided researchers at the University of Copenhagen with unique insight into Denmark's butter production history. Using ...
Phys.org / Mathematical 'sum of zeros' trick exposes topological magnetization in quantum materials
A new study addresses a foundational problem in the theory of driven quantum matter by extending the Středa formula to non-equilibrium regimes. It demonstrates that a superficially trivial "sum of zeros" encodes a universal, ...
Medical Xpress / Links between diabetes and depression are similar across Europe, study of over-50s in 18 countries finds
The relative increase in odds of an individual with diabetes developing severe symptoms of depression—and vice versa—is the same, regardless of where they live, a study of over-50s in 18 countries in Europe presented ...
Phys.org / Can a healthy gut microbiome help prevent childhood stunting?
Malnutrition is responsible for more than half of all deaths in children under the age of five worldwide. Those who survive can still experience lifelong consequences like cognitive and developmental delays, impaired academic ...
Phys.org / Gravitational wave analysis confirms theory of merging black holes
Ten years after scientists first detected gravitational waves emerging from two colliding black holes, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration, a research team that includes Columbia astronomy professor Maximiliano Isi, has recorded ...
Phys.org / Discovery of young eclipsing binary system offers insight into early stellar evolution
An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new pre-main-sequence eclipsing binary system. The newfound binary, designated MML 48, consists of two young low-mass stars. The finding will be published in ...
Phys.org / Amino acids act as 'anti-salt': New insight into how small molecules stabilize proteins
Biologists have long known that amino acids can help stabilize proteins, for example as additives to pharmaceutical formulations. In trying to understand why this works, EPFL and MIT researchers have discovered a fundamental ...
Medical Xpress / Chronic alcohol use halts liver cell regeneration, new study finds
Excessive alcohol consumption can disrupt the liver's unique regenerative abilities by trapping cells in limbo between their functional and regenerative states, even after a patient stops drinking, researchers at University ...
Medical Xpress / AI can spot which patients need treatment to prevent vision loss in young adults
Researchers have successfully used artificial intelligence (AI) to predict which patients need treatment to stabilize their corneas and preserve their eyesight, in a study presented at the 43rd Congress of the European Society ...
Phys.org / Soil runoff from logged forests releases more reactive carbon, undermining climate mitigation efforts
The global demand for wood-based products is constantly increasing, creating a challenge for the logging industry. In an attempt to keep up in a sustainable manner, the industry replaces logged areas with tree farms and nurseries ...
